I want to copy my files onto a fresh filesystem on my new hard drive. I'd image it, but I want a fresh filesystem.
How can I do this with rsync? What options do I need? I think I need -I, -r, -H, -p.

$ cp -a /bin /boot /dev ... other ... /new-disk
-a same as -dpR
-d same as --no-dereference --preserve=links
-p same as --preserve=mode,ownership,timestamps
-R recursive
Create /proc and /sys your self.
You need to install an RTFM interface.

This is all you should need:
rsync -av --delete /mnt/old/ /mnt/new/
